I slowly opened my heavy eyes.

The white sight, which didn’t seem so unfamiliar, made my body reflexively stand up and jump high into the air.

Above my jump, I could see an adult woman whose body was covered in a golden light, symbolizing the purity of the Goddess.

"Ara~ why do you look so surprised, Lily-chan?" she said in a soft sentence while looking at me.

When I landed on the floor of this unfamiliar room, I could feel another presence behind her body that looked like her with a dazzling golden light.

"It seems like your chosen Saintess is starting to be wary of your movements and now hates you, Senpai," she said flatly.

"Eh? That’s impossible! Right, Lily-chan?"

I turned my attention away from the voice of the Goddess that I knew so well.

This sudden meeting made me realize my relationship with the Goddess was getting closer, even in this meeting in a room that I couldn’t explain, my ability was still not enough to see her identity that was covered in a golden light.

"Lily-chan, why did you avert your gaze? Y-You don’t hate me after knowing that I kissed your cheek while you were sleeping here, right?"

"Urk…" I clucked my tongue when I heard that sentence.

I didn’t expect that the Goddess I respected would take advantage of my situation so easily.

I didn’t mind if my cheek was kissed by the Goddess, but to do that while I was sleeping, wouldn’t that be a crime?

Staring at the two figures of the Goddess lying on the bed with their bodies covered in golden light, I started to walk away with a cautious attitude before the Goddess who had always been watching me moved by flying towards me.

"Lily-chan!!"

"Please forgive me!!"

Bugghh...

I could feel the pain from the impact of the Goddess’ body flying towards me. We fell on the floor with my body supporting her heavy body. The posture of her face covered by the dazzling golden light slightly blurred my vision.

"I-It’s… heavy…" I said to show my body position that was being pressed by the Goddess’s weight.

"Hwaa!! I’m sorry, Lily-chan. I accidentally pushed you down," she said in an awkward tone and slowly got up while carrying my body with both hands.

Huugg…

"Hmm?" I mumbled softly when my body felt the Goddess’s arms that felt very warm and filled with softness. It was like sleeping on a mattress that had the softness of natural animal fur that often hibernates during winter.

"Is Lily-chan surprised to wake up in the Goddess’s realm again?" asked my Goddess with a smile that was visible behind the golden glow of her face.

"Waking up in the Goddess’s realm again?" I said those words while tilting my head.

"Fufu… Lily-chan doesn’t seem to realize it, I have summoned your soul to the Goddess’s realm very often. A place rarely visited by living beings who are not bound by our contract. All Saintesses have at least met their Goddesses to pray or strengthen their beliefs. But I don’t care about all that because it’s too complicated and troublesome... Gaahh!!"

Bonk!!

"Are you done talking to your Saintess? I didn’t come to this place to see you making out with your Saintess in front of me!"

My Goddess had been hit so easily by another figure. Seeing her appearance, I could feel an extraordinary surge of holy magic energy from within her. Her relaxed attitude and seemingly fearless attitude towards my Goddess showed their equal standing.

"Aurora, aren’t you being too excessive by hitting my head like this?" replied my Goddess while stroking her head which looked as small as a lump and slowly put me down.

"Senpai, have you forgotten my purpose for coming to this place?"

"Of course, I know, but let me enjoy just five minutes to touch Lily-chan gently... Gaahhaa!!"

Bonk!!

I could see my Goddess looking helpless in front of the other Goddess. Putting aside my Goddess’ seemingly relaxed nature, I could even tell that my Goddess intentionally created this relaxed atmosphere so that I wouldn’t be tense when facing two Goddesses at once.

If I heard correctly, my Goddess called her Aurora. This meant that I indirectly made contact with the Goddess Aurora even though I wasn’t the Saintess who came from the Goddess Aurora Shrine.

My thoughts suddenly shifted to my behavior of borrowing a sacred artifact in the form of a magic staff from the Aurora Goddess Shrine.

Could it be that the Goddess Aurora was angry at me for borrowing her artifact without permission?

Oh no, what should I do this time?

I have to face the wrath of the Goddess Aurora directly.

I closed my eyes and tried my best to stay calm.

If the Goddess Aurora could easily hit my Goddess’ head, doesn’t that mean she could also hit my nail?

If my Goddess’ head only got a bruise, then what about me who is much weaker than my Goddess?

I don’t want to feel the pain of accidentally borrowing someone’s thing, I know it’s a bit pushy but there is no other way to attack the sin-eating slime other than manifesting magic energy with a magic tool like the magic staff owned by one of the holy women of the Aurora Goddess Shrine.

Kyyyuuttt...

I could feel my cheek being pulled by a soft and warm hand.

"Calm down, I didn’t come here to punish you or give you bad things, Lily-chan."

"Huh?" I slowly opened my eyes and saw the figure of the Goddess Aurora who was already in front of me.

"My purpose in coming to this place and meeting your soul is related to one of my Saintesses who grew into a dead end. You know that the remaining Saintesses of humanity are all fake, right?" asked the Goddess Aurora to me while stroking my cheek that had just been pulled by her.

"Yes, I know about that, my Goddess explained to me that humanity lost the original holy Saintess through a holy sacrifice to atone for all of humanity’s sins," I replied in a soft tone that felt messy because my cheek was being played with by the Goddess Aurora’s hand.

"That makes me relieved because I don’t have to explain at length about the fake Saintess. Does Lily-chan know about the problems that humanity once faced that led to them sacrificing their own Saintess?" asked the Goddess Aurora with a serious expression covered by golden light.

I shook my head.

I had no idea that the saint of humanity sacrificed herself like that.

"I don’t know," I answered shortly.

"Do you want to know the reason why humanity no longer has a real Saintess?" asked the Goddess Aurora to me with a wide smile on her face.

"I no longer have any hope for humanity because they sacrificed the Saintess I was proud of to die in vain, her pure, holy, and innocent soul has returned to my side and was cleansed and reborn into that world with no regrets," the Saintess Aurora pressed her soft hand to continue stroking my cheek.

"Do you know about the little girl who just became a Saintess at a young age, the little girl who is currently lying on your bare thigh," said the Goddess Aurora while removing her soft touch from my cheek and showing magic image of my body which was sleeping with Hana and my twin step-sisters.

"Hasn’t she returned to being a cute and innocent little girl without knowing that she had died and was reborn into a world filled with sin? Even in her second life, she still prays and praises me just like she used to be when she became a Saintess. Lily-chan, I know you have a relationship with the Saintess of another Goddess like Sia and Ciel."

"If possible, can you make a contract with my Saintess whose have large holy power sleeping inside her?" said the Goddess Aurora while showing Hana’s face who was sleeping on my bare thigh.

I paid attention to every word uttered by the Goddess Aurora.

"Can you take care of this Saintess whom I am proud of as your mother-in-law?"

"Guuhu!!" said my Goddess with a very surprised expression on her face.

"Huh?" I didn’t understand the meaning of those words but I could feel that this task felt very heavy when my twin step-sister and Hana didn’t seem to get along with each other.

"This task isn’t that heavy, please do the Linked Ritual one more time with Hana. I want to make the Yurification System created by my Senpai integrated with the power and blessing system that I will give you."

"Isn’t this mutually beneficial for you, Lily-chan? You must be uncomfortable with the complicated interface used by my Senpai when using the Yurification System, right?"

Stabb...

Stabb...

"Guuhu!! It hurts so much! I knew the system I was developing had a bad interface, but I didn’t expect it to be this bad when it got meddled with by my own Kouhai," my Goddess grumbled, seemingly lamenting her defeat.

"I don’t know what’s going on in this place and between you goddess, but to create a Linked Ritual with Hana, didn’t I already do it?" I asked when I realized that Hana and I already had kissed.

"That doesn’t count because there was interference from your Goddess who wanted to take another Goddess’s favorite saintess," replied the Goddess Aurora while glaring at my Goddess.

"Hey, that’s because you played hard to get her and recognized as your Saintess, I was just giving you encouragement!" refuted my Goddess with all sorts of reasons.

"Maybe you’re right, Senpai. I’ve been cold to her for too long with memories that don’t recognize me," the Goddess Aurora looked gloomy.

I fell silent after feeling the awkwardness of the Goddess Aurora.
